Taiyuan's First 100 MW Standalone ESS Power Station Goes Fully Grid-Connected

Published: May 9, 2026 16:10
Recently, Taiyuan's first Zhichu 100 MW standalone ESS power station was connected to the power grid at full capacity. The project is Taiyuan's first standalone ESS power station, marking a new breakthrough and a key step forward in the city's construction of a new-type power system. The Taiyuan Zhichu 100 MW standalone ESS power station is a key project under Shanxi Province's "14th Five-Year Plan" for new-type energy storage development. Covering an area of approximately 29 mu, with a total investment of 390 million yuan and a total installed capacity of 50 megawatt hours, the station adopts the highly safe hybrid technology of "flywheel energy storage + LFP battery." Composed of 12 prefabricated modular energy storage units, it functions as a large-scale "super power bank," capable of storing or releasing 50,000 kWh of electricity per hour, meeting the daily electricity needs of nearly 30,000 households simultaneously.
